Now I must use the = button after every calculation to see the [running
total]. It's hard to keep a checkbook register correct if you can't
see the running total. Hitting the = button after every number is
cumbersome when you're running through several pages. The calculators
on my desktop computer and on the internet work as expected.

Does anyone else see this? I looked for any options on the application
itself and in Settings to change this but to no avail.

It's a bug and it's been fixed in 18.3

This new calculator really sucks and is unusable! Where is the C (clear) button?

Notice the <backspace> symbol.

That's the clear key. True you have to hit backspace as many times as
you typed characters.

That's the clear key. True you have to hit backspace as many
times as you typed characters.

What you describe with the link is not the issue I’m having. I
upgraded to 18.3 last night and the behavior continues. And there
is still no C button.

You're being a little limited with the truth.

What your screenshot shows is the view while typing a sum. The
backspace key allows you to correct typos. If you press and hold the
backspace button it clears the screen.

I was unaware you had to HOLD the backspace button for the screen to
clear. That makes it a little better.

However the original problem still remains. I cannot get a running
total just by pressing the + or - button. I must use the = button to
see the total of the running calculation. This is different behavior
than the previous calculator, which even had a log available to see
previous calculations. As I said, i primarily use the calculator to
keep my checkbook register accurate and having to use the = button
after each number is cumbersome, especially when all other calculators
work as expected.

Once you've hit "=" then the "AC" button appears.

This calculator is completely useless to me now.

Lol. That's quite an overreaction.

Hopefully I can find a
normal one on App Store.

Let us know how you get on.

I ended up downloading Calculator% which seems to work just fine and as expected. The iOS Calculator icon has gone into the folder of uuused
Apple apps on my phone.

That's good feedback. I have the same issue as you and will give the
app you found a try.

BTW, I don't possibly see how this could be considered a "bug". They
obviously made a design change to the way the app works and probably
didn't count on this reaction. There are many, many situations where a
constant running total is helpful.

Wow. You can't even follow a reply.

Where did put the text regarding the bug?

Do you think it applied to what said about the clear key?

There is no running total. The calculations only show up at the very

Interesting that you presented it as two separate elements, rather than
a video that went straight from the "Up to date" screen to the
Calculator, huh?
